During the official weigh-in for the big fight, Chisora foolishly smacked Klitschko. Hard.

Most likely, the agreement to fight Chisora was just a negotiating tactic in the prolonged dance between world class let-down David Haye and Dr. Steelhammer, and it was soon called off. Chisora's career has suffered since then, before he looked great in an unfortunate losing effort in his last bout, and now he is back on February 18th, taking on Klitschko the Elder before a very pro-Klitschko Munich crowd.

Former British and Commonwealth Champion
Dereck Chisora was once a hot, rising prospect in the British heavyweight boxing picture, but I think he can be safely categorized as a fringe contender for the time being. If you count his close, Split Decision loss to Robert Helenius as a win (and many do), he is 1-1 in fights with other prospects, due to his clean loss to Tyson Fury.
